HI do we know how much is lost to space and how much retained in the atmosphere. Presumably that retained heat energy will be in the rain and re-warm the earth? .The ratio of lost to space/retained will be needed for people to decide how useful this mechanism for cooling the earth. Once I know that then I can start to share this information, but of course that figure is the first thing I am likely to be asked.
There is something called the energy budget which looks at how much is energy goes down different channels. 24% of the suns energy is radiated from the surface of the earth as latent heat (which is what carries the water vapor) . However I still have to look for figure for how much of that latent heat then radiates into space. See this diagram for the energy budget https://rwu.pressbooks.pub/webboceanography/chapter/8-1-earths-heat-budget/
Really interesting as well as important knowledge. A lot of professionals need this information to better understand how to take the right decisions when working with land management, agriculture, cityplanning etc.
Hi Jonas, Thanks for your comment. Yes I am open to connecting with people in these areas and talking to them about this.... Also open to ideas of how to get this information into people in these areas.
Alpha—have you/can you make a video of this? Just you speaking over these wonderful images?
Yeah I can try and do that. Thanks for the thought
